Top 10 Rejected Slogans of the Romney Campaign

Earlier this week, the presidential campaign of former Republican Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney hit a snag when it was discovered that his catchphrase, "Keep America American", was also used by the anti-immigrant Know Nothing Party and the Ku Klux Klan. Obviously, this is quite embarrassing for Mr. Romney's campaign but sources say there were actually other slogans that were eventually scrapped in favor of the racist one. What were they?

10) "My hunting lodge still wasn't called Niggerhead."

9) "NeoKnow Nothing and Proud of it!"

8) "Keeping America Like Me and My Shirt: White and starched."

7) "#Occupyabananaboatbackhome"

6) "I Marched With Dr. King While Cycling Through France During Vietnam."

5) "I ♥ Philadelphia, Mississippi."

4) "How Do You Like My Driving a Racial Wedge Through America? Call 1-800-GET-MITT."
